New Showbiz Analysis

Nicole Macé’s film deconstructs 1970s social institutions by replacing traditional marriage with a multi-partner arrangement. It effectively challenges patriarchal models by shifting focus to the enduring partnership between two women. However, the film does not engage with racial, ethnic, or disability-related diversity, focusing instead on gender and sexual norms.
